About Ruby

24 years old Speaks English French
I began working with children in 2019 when I lived as an au pair in France for over a year and a half. The families I worked with used a Montessori-inspired approach and I also came to follow this methodology, reading books and articles about holistic childcare during this time. Now I have moved back to the UK and over the past year I have been working as a regular babysitter as well as working as a home-carer for elderly disabled people. I am a patient, kind and compassionate person who loves spending time with children! I am used to holding safe and fun space for children aged between 9 months - 10 years. I tend to lean towards a child-led approach, following the inspirations of the young person while ensuring everyone is safe and their needs are met. I find imaginative and creative play indoors as well as outdoors to be an especially positive way to spend time with kids and I am open and receptive to learn about the unique preferences of each individual/ family.
